I know - I would expect there to be a Russian sub pretty much routinely on station in that part of the Pacific. The Chinese? Maybe, maybe not on a routine basis. But the North Koreans? That would be interesting, but I doubt it.... would any of their decrepit boats even have the range to get to San Diego without at-sea refueling? Nah... the presence of a Canadian ASW plane says "exercise" with a US sub - IMHO....
